Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text editing. It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX systems. Vim is often called a "programmer's editor," and so useful for programming that many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim is perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing configuration files. FreeBSD has the following Vim packages: * vim: Console-only Vim (vim binary) with all runtime files * vim-gtk3, -gtk2, -motif: Console Vim plus a GUI (gvim binary) * vim-x11: Console Vim only, with xclipboard support * vim-tiny: Vim binary only, with no runtime files. Not useful for most people; intended for minimal (ex. jail) installations

Notes from UPDATING
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2022-09-03
    Affects: users of editors/vim
    Author: adamw@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      The Vim port no longer installs a system-wide vimrc. It drastically affected
      config loading order, and led to various settings being clobbered, duplicated,
      or ignored.
    
      Vim's provided defaults.vim (/usr/local/share/vim/vim90/defaults.vim) continues
      to be read just as before, but its settings are no longer clobbered. Take a look
      in there for any settings you may want to change, and do ':h initialization' to
      see where Vim looks for config files.

  • 2021-09-02
    Affects: users of editors/vim
    Author: adamw@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      The vim ports have been completely reworked to take advantage of flavors.
    
      The biggest change is that the `vim' package is now console-only. If
      you want the GTk3 GUI, you'll need to install the `vim-gtk3' package
      instead. All the GUI toolkits have their own package now: vim-gtk3,
      vim-gtk2, -athena, -motif, and -x11. The vim-tiny package still exists.
    
      Also: only python3 bindings are included now. There are very few plugins
      written in Perl or Ruby, so there really wasn't a need to bundle those
      languages with Vim. They still exist as OPTIONS, so you can still enable
      them if you'd like. Also, support for py27 has been dropped.

Port Moves
  • port moved here from editors/vim-console on 2021-09-02

Use ${ECHO_CMD} instead of ${ECHO} where you mean the echo command;   the ECHO
macro is set to "echo" by default, but it is set to "true" if   make(1) is
invoked with the -s option while ECHO_CMD is always set to   the echo command.
